I am not much of a mathematician, but doesn’t 20% of $9 million amount to $1.8 million?

1976 Plymouth Volare. The slant six engine was reliable, and gutless, almost everything else was horrible. The most interesting flaw was that the 4-speed manual transmission linkage was assembled incorrectly at the factory and its shifting pattern was 1-2-4-3. The transmission was replaced and the replacement went…
There was a period of time, several years ago, when I made 12+ hour road trips several times a year. I used water as my drink of choice and my favorite snack was trail mix. I prefer something crunchy and not too salty.

I had a 2005 Solara convertible and it would be a good choice. Mine needed a little work, and I did not find the parts to be particularly inexpensive, but they were not OMG expensive. Bob was wrong about which car to drive, but right about convertibles being made for Beach Boys tunes.
It was a day, rather than a moment, or even one race, but I have never seen anything like it.
I will give it a reluctant NP. It is an interesting vehicle but the paint color is not to my taste and it has too few miles on it. It is likely that this car has spent a significant amount of time sitting.
I owned the worst car made in the 1970s, a 1976 Plymouth Volare. It came from ther factory with dozens of defects, and the four-speed manual transmission was not even able to hold up to the awesome pwer of the slant-six engine, 100 raging HP, IIRC.
1960 AH Sprite Mk I (Bugeye). It was slow, unreliable, fragile, impractical, claustrophobic with the top up, the gas tank was too small, etc. When I drove it, I didn’t care about its many faults, I just enjoyed the ride. Remarkably, it had enough room inside for me to be comfortable with the top down, so the top was…
I was planning on buying a new car in 2021 but, due to COVID, high prices, etc., I decided to wait until 2023. Now, on top of every thing else, it may be more difficult to buy a car with a real color. Life is a bitch, then you die.

“Wasn’t there some news the other day that Jeep was considering expanding the Wagoneer brand down further into the portfolio with a smaller CUV?
I have said it before. Cars only come in three colors, red, black, and “who cares.”
One advantage advantage of cereal is that there are several varieties that are gluten free without having a premium price.
My Dad had a 1940 Nash (in 1953) that had a straight eight engine with two spark plugs per cylinder. I remember, as a seven-tear-old boy, being impressed by the size of that engine. It looked much larger than the flat head V8 in his 1953 Ford.
One of the advantages of being retired is that my wife and I can take our trips at times other than holidays. We are taking a three-night trip and returning on the Thursday before the Fourth. It was easy to get hotel reservations so it looks like the crowds won’t be too bad.

How does this vehicle compare to the Toyota RAV4 Prime?

IMHO, EVs are not ready for prime time until they can be competitive with ICE vehicles without various levels of government subsidizing their sale. The most painful part of saying this is that it means I agree, at least a little bit, with Senator Manchin.
